Panettone and craft products

An Italian Christmas smells of freshly sliced artisan panettone, and this category bottles that scent in 111 references signed by the country's most respected pastry houses. Around the great festive cakes we gather soft torrone, croccantini, pralines, spreadable creams, jams, savoury pâtés, extra-virgin olive oil and even a couple of liqueurs — a complete gourmet hamper to gift or to keep in the pantry through the holidays.

Brands and range

Six historic Italian names shape the selection:

• Fiasconaro — the Sicilian panettone Fiasconaro at its finest: Oro Verde with pistachio, Citrus & Saffron, Apple & Cinnamon, Forest Fruits, the versions soaked in Marsala DOP, Zibibbo IGP and Malvasia delle Lipari Passito DOC, the Dolce&Gabbana signature tins, the Italian soft torrone nougat and spreadable creams of pistachio, almond, coffee and manna.
• Galup — the Piedmont tradition with its hazelnut-and-almond glaze, the Paradiso without raisins or candied peel, mignon panettoncini and the gluten-free Gran Galup line.
• Strega Alberti — Strega liqueur sweets from Benevento: panettoni and pandori soaked or filled, croccantini, torrone and pralines, plus the Strega liqueur itself and Limoncello di Sorrento.
• Quattrociocchi — specialities from Lazio: extra jams of fig, strawberry, sour cherry, blackberry and fragola grape, artichoke and mushroom pâtés, pistachio cream and extra-virgin olive oil.
• Cioccafè — chocolate-covered coffee beans, from Espresso Dark to Cappuccino Milk.
• Maxtris — one of the historic Italian confectionery houses in the catalogue.

How to choose

After the classic? Reach for the traditional Fiasconaro Italian Christmas cake or the soft Sicilian torrone. Prefer bold flavours? Oro Verde and the pistachio cream spread made with Sicilian pistachios are the obvious pick. For special diets there is the gluten-free panettone by Gran Galup and the Paradiso with no raisins or candied peel, while the Strega liqueur sweets, soaked right to the core, are made to impress at the table. Serve in slices, gently warmed, with a spoon of cream or jam and a good coffee or a glass of passito wine alongside.
